Chapter 1256: Selling the House Again
s she isn't the best candidate, and it seems we shouldn't let them get married easily. 。"If Xuxu doesn't like Aunt Ye Wen, then who do you like Your dad can't live alone all the time!" 。"Grandpa, yo...This is my home, this was my home before my parents had an accident. 。I was born and raised here, running around this courtyard since I was little. 。When I was eight years old, Jingyi was born. Since then, our two figures have been running wild in this courtyard. 。" Qin Jing's gentle reminiscences recounted the house's connection to her, thus telling Qiao Shunchen why she had bought it and why she refused to sell it. 。"Over there, by the garage, next to it is a warehouse" 。When I was little, Jingyi and I used to play hide-and-seek in that warehouse. 。At this time, Qiao Shunchen, following Qin Jingwen's memories, also came to his childhood. 。But his memories begin with hatred for this house. 。A person, full of anger, came here to look for Qin Lan. He tried once, twice, but didn't dare to go in. 。Every time he came for the third or fourth visit, he saw Qin Jingwen in his memories as an eight-year-old girl. 。Looking at the little girl playing happily and carefree, his heart that was burning with anger instantly calmed down. 。That warehouse now truly became a warehouse, filled with relics left behind by my parents. 。“ Qin Jingwen seemed noticeably downcast. She thought of her parents and also of her own loneliness. 。After spending so long with Qiao Shunchen, I never thought about breaking up, and I only calmly brought up her family affairs. 。But now that I think about it, it was right that I didn't say anything before, otherwise Joe Shunchen would have thought she was even less worthy. 。Qin Jingwen adjusted her emotions as quickly as possible, because no matter how much pain she felt inside, nobody cared anymore. 。When you asked me to sell this house, I wanted to tell you that it's where I was born and raised, but you wouldn't listen. 。...including my parents' car accident, and how difficult it has been for me all these years... 。You only know the tip of the iceberg. I want to speak seriously with you, but you never listen. 。Today, Qin Jingwen suddenly understood many things. At this moment, she knew the reason why Qiao Shunchen didn't listen to her. 。Since he didn't take her seriously, her affairs were irrelevant to him. To him, even hearing an extra word was a bother. 。Qin Jingwen's words made Qiao Shunchen's heart churn, he didn't know if it was pain, or anger. 。"I should have listened to you sooner " 。I had heard about Qin Jingwen's identity a long time ago, so I shouldn't have let myself fall into such a deep and painful situation. 。"You handled your parents' car accident all by yourself" Jo Shunchun continued asking, not even sure what kind of answer he wanted. 。He didn't even know which questions were important and which weren't. 。Just thinking out loud, I blurted out whatever came to mind. 。"Well, Aunt came back to help me deal with " 。"At that time, the house was repossessed by the bank and the company went bankrupt, we couldn't afford to compensate the deceased." 。Luckily, my parents had already prepared houses for both me and Jingyi before this. So I decided to sell both our houses on my own. 。"Even so, it was still a drop in the bucket. Later, when my aunt came back, she sold the small Siheyuan courtyard that her grandfather had left to her." 。You still remember, don't you I once told you that I wanted to buy an even older house. 。That older house belongs to my aunt. 。" Qin Jingwen also understood why she had said so much. 。It's possible that there won't be any connection between you and Qiao Shunchen anymore, and you might even feel relieved and indifferent. 。"I still owe some money to people until now." 。
You've been asking me what I've been busy with lately, well, I've been looking for this person to give them money.
"Why didn't you say it before, but now you're bringing it up" Qiao Shunchen's wary and suspicious eyes finally met Qin Jingwen's. 。The sudden appearance of his aunt in Qin Jingwen's mouth made him snap out of his dazed expression. 。
Qin Jingwen once again became a cunning and treacherous person.
She was so cunning, so full of tricks. Who knows what she's planning by suddenly saying all this today 。"I was angry with you the other day. You don't tell me a lot of things, so I guess I should just deal with my own problems." 。"Now that I think about it, I'm glad I didn't say " 。If a woman who is not worthy of you were to say these troublesome things, wouldn't that be even more annoying 。"Qin Jingwen spoke truthfully, but her heart was bleeding. 。I never could have imagined that all this time, being with Qiao Shunchen was unknowingly acting out a play with him. 。As for feelings and love, they don't really exist. It's just her one-sided wishful thinking. 。What's even more ridiculous is that she now suspects that Qiao Shunchen's life-or-death gamble for her was all an act, because she got so caught up in the role that she believed it was true love written with his life. 。"Did that person find him" Joe Shunchen's heart was pounding too hard. 。Looking at Qin Jingwen's downcast expression and hearing her disappointed words, Qiao Shunchen felt a mixture of hatred and reluctance, leaving him mentally conflicted. 。Even if we found it, I couldn't afford to pay for it. 。I prepared 4 million, but his compensation claim is eighty million. 。“
Now Qin Jingwen doesn't care if this person is a fraudster or not, she has to prepare 80 million anyway. After all, she needs to wait for things to be confirmed and see the person before handing over the money.
"Eighty million..."Joe Shunchen let out a cold snort, clearly mocking Qin Jingwen for not being able to come up with that much money. 。"Don't overthink it, I'm not complaining, and I'm not asking you for money." 。"
Qin Jingwen quickly explained, she knew that saying so was wishful thinking, and she also knew that Qiao Shunchen couldn't possibly lend her money at this time. 。Because it is common knowledge, Qin Jingwen dared to say these things. 。Having been with Qiao Shunchen for so long, this was the first time she had so blatantly brought up money. 。It was also the first time I felt so comfortable sharing these things with Qiao Shunchen. 。That's because they quickly had nothing to do with each other, as it didn't involve Qiao Shunchen's interests. 。"You have to sell this villa, or you won't be able to pay..." 。"Whenever you decide to sell your house, let me know. I'll buy it." 。" Qiao Shunchen threw down such a sentence very suddenly and turned to leave. Qin Jingwen felt inexplicable, but she could only watch his back slowly walk away. 。 Qiao Shunchen suddenly left because he was tortured to the brink of death, because he had an impulse to say everything and quickly resolve everything. 。To prevent this impulse from becoming reality, he had to leave. 。Qin Jingwen said everything that Qiao Shunchen could no longer distinguish between true and false, fact or conspiracy. 。The harder it was to discern, the more Qiao Shunchen suffered. 。Qin Jing's gentle and Qiao Shunchen's tiring nature left them both mentally and physically exhausted. They had no extra energy or thought to spare for anything else. 。And that's when Qiao Bin shines. 。His plan had already begun, and this period was just the right time for progress to accelerate. 。Joe Bin returned home very late, but saw that the light in his father's study was still on. 。Chiao-bin wanted to go to the study to say hello to his father, but he stopped at the door. 。In the study 。Joe Xiang and Liu the Butler were discussing matters, and they didn't notice that the study door was left ajar, nor did they notice that Joe Bin had returned. 。"Chairman, the company has been running very well recently" 。Shunchen and Shunhao also performed very well. You don't have to worry, just let them go for it. 。As for the recent developments of the company, Liu Guanjia has already reported them all. 。Joe Shunchen and Joe Shounhao's performance are also part of what he must report. 。
"Now I feel relieved.
Joel spoke with relief, 。Hearing this, Qiao Bin didn't hear anything. Instead, he heard his son expressing that he wanted to go in and take advantage of the hot iron to say a few words. 。Just as he reached out to push the door, his father's words stopped him in his tracks. 。"Is Shunhao capable of taking on the role of CEO now"Joe Chiang had his own thoughts on this, and he'd been discussing it these past few days. However, he still needed to hear Liu Butler's opinion 。"He is very hardworking and enthusiastic. However, taking on the position of CEO seems a bit immature and lacking " 。Take your time, you should be fine after some practice. 。Liu the steward gave his opinion, however he didn't know that this opinion made Qiao Bin feel dissatisfied. 。 Qiao Bin knew very well how much weight Liu, the steward, carried in his father's eyes. Even his words held less weight than those of Liu. 。"I can't wait at this age, and I don't know how long I have to wait " 。"Shunhao is still too young and inexperienced. " 。I also think he can't shoulder the responsibility of being the CEO right now. 。Joe Xiang's opinion is the same as Liu Guanyin's, since both people are the same, there is no question. 。"I can't wait and don't want to wait any longer." 。Even if I could live for a few more years, I'd give up my position and relax. 。"Well then, when the board of directors meets at year's end I'll announce my resignation." 。The position of chairman is given to Shunchen, and for now, the CEO is also Shunchen. 。"Joe Chiang finally made a decision, deciding to step down from the position of chairman." 。He no longer had the energy to manage company affairs, even just listening to reports and occasionally giving a general direction. He couldn't even bring himself to do such simple things. 。This is what Liu the Butler has been worried about all along: “Both the CEO and chairman’s rights are given to Shunchen. Will Qiao Bin and Shunhao have any objections” 。"Don't worry about it so much, no matter what I do, Qiao Bin will have an opinion." 。The CEO position is left for Shunchen to decide, he has the sense of proportion and won't hold onto it forcefully. 。Joe Xiang saw through Qiao Bin and simply didn't consider Qiao Bin's feelings. 。He believes in Qiao Shunchen, believing that Qiao Shunchen won't hold all the power. 。One day, Qiao Bin will understand the intentions of Qiao Shunchen and everyone else, and he will understand the hardships behind all this. 。However, Qiao Bin couldn't imagine how high Qiao Dexiang could reach, and he couldn't accept his father's arrangement. 。It's a bit excessive to give both the chairman and CEO positions to Joe Shunchen. 。While it might be possible to disregard his existence, you can't simply ignore his son as well. That would be incredibly unfair to both of them. 。Although he had also heard his father say that Qiao Shunchen would not cling to the position of president. 。But I can't guarantee that Qiao Shunchen will give the CEO position to Qiao Shunhao. 。When the father is gone, Qiao Shunchen will be happy to give his position to one of his trusted aides. Then they will have no hope and might even be driven out of Qiaoshi by Qiao Shunchen. 。No, something like this would never happen to Qiao Bin's son. He would fight for his son, he would stand up for himself. 。 Qiao Bin didn't make a sound, nor did he interrupt his father and Liu Guanjia's conversation. He quietly returned to his bedroom. 。"Where did you go, coming back so late" 。The moment Joe Bin closed the door, he heard his wife's displeased voice. 。“Walking the dog” 。Joe Bin impatiently answered, 。Right now, his mind was entirely consumed by his father's words, leaving no room for other thoughts. 。that answering like this would make Joe Shunchen hate her more, and it would make him forget their love—a love as fragile as a leaf blown by the wind—sooner. 。Joe Shun-chen's cold brows tightened even...
